Behind UGA and TENN
UGA beat us, so that’s that (and their two losses are to BAMA and Ole ####)
I could argue that TENN is way overrated at #7 because they lost to Arkansas, but it’s hard to argue we are better than them (or that a home loss to Louisville is better than a road loss to Arky)
All that being said, it think we are sitting pretty darn good given our performance on the field.

You are absolutely right. We have 1 decent win vs Pitt. Yet we sit at 12.

Many of our wins are against some of the worst P4 schools in the country. Stanford, FSU, and NC State are atrocious. VT and UVA are not really good either.
And we got KILLED in our two losses. If we beat SCAR it would be huge. Extremely important rivalry game for the success of our season. More than most.

And you need to slow your roll right now. I have a lifetime of defending Clemson against idiot coot fans and yelling my ### off at games and doing my part in the rivalry to humiliate coots so I don't need some overly optimistic silly person trying to act like me having a less orange-colored-glasses perspective somehow wipes away my solid resume as a Clemson fan.
You don't dare call me a coot over such a stupid reason. You think I'm an idiot? Fine. Say that. You think I am delusional? Fine say that. But you watch your mouth calling diehard Clemson fans coots. Understand?

What you said, in other words, is that Clemson fans are incapable of factual, intellectual analysis and that South Carolina fans have that ability.
That's a horribly backwards way to categorize Clemson fans.
Clemson people are supposed to be smarter than that.

I bet you voted For Kamala!
You think Your college degree makes you smarter than everyone!
It doesn’t , if you were blessed to go thank God and be grateful! But what I have seen from college graduates in the last 10 years they are far from smart! Far from intelligent but they are indoctrinated and brain washed!

I gave you a TD, not because I care one whit what your opinion on "optimistic vs pessimistic" Clemson fans, or whatever youw ant to call it. I gave you a TD because you brought politics where it simply doesn't belong. Take that stuff elsewhere.

including Luavull. So yeah, the fact that we lost to Luavull and weren't competitive with UGA is shaping our current reality. Without a convincing win over an average coot team this Satdy and some help abroad, we're looking at the Pop Tart Bowl as the reward for 2024 efforts.
Comprehension of and preparation for reality is always better than the heartbreak that happens when the delusion finally gets pushed out.

Beating SC would be a good win because this year they actually have been a pretty good team. Certainly better than average. Top 15 is definitely not "average."

He's a Tiger fan. Moreover, he's a rational Tiger fan. There are no backhanded insults ot Clemson in what he wrote. We've beaten primarily bad teams this year. That is simply factual.
Recalibrate your gamecock detector because currently it's set to "Anything other than abject optimism and orange tint"

To look at the product on the field this season and think "all is great and anyone who says otherwise is a Coot" is a level of stupidity I can't imagine someone actually associated with an institution of higher learning demonstrating. I actually envy people who lack this sort of critical thinking ability, so at least you have that.

CSO what you said is a lucid, intelligent, well thought-out objection. Unfortunately the sunshine pumpers are the judge from My Cousin Vinny “overruled!” Any dissent will be met with unreasonable claims about your fanhood, lots of misspellings, and random capitalizations. Don’t read too much into it

We didn’t get killed by Louisville… we got beat. The game was competitive, but we could not stop them in critical situations. Getting killed is Alabama vs Oklahoma. That game was not competitive.

We were losing 26-7 until with 7 minutes in the 4th until we got some garbage time touchdowns.
They ran all over our defense all day. We scored ONCE in the first 85% of the game. There is no justification. That was a blowout.

Actually, Az State and Iowa state should be above us. And I really think ole miss, and scar should be ranked above us.
We should be ranked (resume wise) with Tulane.

Their road loss wasn't as bad as our home loss. Unless we beat SC and they lose to Vandy, we don't jump them.
We lost to Georgia, so we don't get in above them.
If we lose to SC, we're out.
The SEC question marks will be Bama and Ole Miss. TAMU won't be a factor if Texas beats them.

So the only thing that matters is the first game?
What one team does against another has nothing to do with the third team.
Also what If Georgia loses to GT and Clemson beats scar. 3 loss Georgia gets in over 2 loss Clemson?
